About Adam Weinger
Adam Weinger is the President of Double the Donation and is passionate about helping nonprofits raise more money from employee matching gift and volunteer grant programs.
Double the Donation was founded when Adam, Double the Donation’s President, was working at a major bank and made donations to his university, the local Big Brothers Big Sisters organization, and LLS.
By the time he realized his company had a matching gift program, it was too late to get many of those donations matched.
Discussions with multiple nonprofits revealed they all viewed matching gifts as bonus money. Double the Donation was started to help organizations proactively grow their matching gift revenue and focus more of their resources on their core mission.
Adam has been featured throughout the nonprofit sector in publications like Nonprofit PRO, Blackbaud Engage, and more.
